‘Boy Wives and Female Husbands’ is a body of work highlighting the queer and non-binary communities
that have existed throughout the African continent.
With 4 different chapters each exploring a modern interpretation of either an historical figure or a community of folks performing gender outside of the binary norms, the series aims to look at the place these communities occupied in traditional African societies in relation to the place queer and non-binary folks occupy today on the continent and across the globe, in hopes to contribute to a positive change to the ways in which these folks are treated in contemporary society.
